Sweet art

I totally agree with you Daniel… If I want to do a permenant work of art, I paint on canvas, or water colour paper etc… But for cakes, people must cut it and eat it after enjoying the viewing. It part of the pleasure…. You can always look at the photos afterwards… And keep as a good memory of a time when it was pleasure and joy.
I do not keep a gallery of cakes… Once a cake or exhibit piece has been viewed, it is either eaten or (if an exhibit) put in the bin.
You are an amazing artist and sculptist, I love looking at all your inspirational creations..
Great discussion by the way :)

Very well said Daniel and Calli! …for me it is also a labour of love. Taking time to create something for family or a close friend, which shows you value the relationship. To see them with a smile or look of excitement.
And yes… definitely meant to be eaten!!!

Thank you Calli!! I agree, the memory and the photos of the moment are enough reminders to keep.

That’s true Julez! when you create something special for someone you love the best compliment is to enjoy it in all senses, including eat it.

There is nothing better than the look on children’s faces when they see the birthday cake. Every face is filled with wonder, and it is such a special moment knowing you have just created a memory that will never fade. And then they can’t wait to eat it…..
My son-in-law is the one you refer to who is sad to eat them – he has to leave the room when a cake is cut! I have to make a rich fruit cake for his birthday as it takes weeks for him to cut it.

I really love this and love the way you describe your passion. I truly love cutting into my creations and enjoying them for what they are, edible art.
Your work is beautiful.

I believe people admire your creation even more, when they can actually taste, and in a way be a part of such a divine piece of art.

Yes Judy!! The look of someone’s face when they see their celebration cake is one of the best things!!

Thanks Sweet ObsesShan!!

I agree! Their admiration is more powerful because they can enjoy it in more senses Nancy! :D

Living day to day and savor a good cup of chocolate.
Life can end at any time, only account now.

I so agree… The exciting part is eating something that looks like it can not be eaten it makes it special and normally it is for a special occasion and becomes the centerpiece of the celebration :) it stimulates many senses.. sight, smell, taste, touch, hearing ….some pieces light up and have music some are buildings, animal, people they are endless and on top of that they taste amazing!.. cakes and chocolates have come a long way from where they began :) can not wait to see where they go in future :D

Yes!! we just continue the journey!! :D :D :D
